The "War on Terror" was the first time in American history that this country went to war and taxes didn't go up. In fact that went down. This generation of Americans has never been asked to sacrifice ANYTHING for freedom. Now that freedom is being taken away.

Time for some sacrifice

I was arguing with a PhD candidate last week who insisted that "Russiagate was a hoax". When I pushed him a little bit on what he meant by that claim, he actually wasn't sure. But pulled out his phone and asked ChatGPT.

I'm many hours away from DC, but hope that we can boost the signal to get others there and in the streets.

In the blue states, 100%. We are mobilized.

But protests in Boston where everyone already hates Trump aren't going to do much good. Trump wants to take over DC? Is DC just going to let him?

See this? This is Seoul, South Korea. This is what you do when your president tries to become a dictator.

Every man, woman and child who lives within 100 miles of Washington DC should be in the streets. Tonight.

What are you waiting for?

Do you really think we're 'sleepwalking' into dictatorship? Or, are eyes actually wide-open?

We are sleepwalking into this dictatorship. You know the poem "first they came"? Well we're at least a third of the way down the list.

What's going on in DC? There should be a million people in the streets

Little Rock, the capital city of Tom Cotton's home state of Arkansas, has one of the highest violent crime rates of any city in the United States.

D.C. doesn't even crack the top-10.

Critical point Trump made: he wants to get rid of all the various police agencies and independent local forces and create "the police, very rough police"

Trump claims DC is โ€œthe worst place on earthโ€, worse than โ€œBogota and Mexico Cityโ€. It has been โ€œovertaken by drug maniacs and homeless peopleโ€..

Trump announces he's taking over the DC police department to rescue the city from "crime, bloodshed, and bedlam."

Violent crime in DC reached a 30 year low in 2024 and is down sharply again this year.

I dedicated 15 years of my life to reporting on how pro-democracy movements became revolutions when regimes failed to embrace freedom. I learned 2 things:

1. It's time to stop reporting on revolutions and help lead one.

2. This is the lamest dictator in the history of dictators. It's embarrassing

Donetsk is Ukraine. Luhansk is Ukraine. Crimea is Ukraine.

Russia is a thief, murderer, rapist trying to pillage Ukraine.

Ukraine will not accept this. They knows that if you feed a bear it comes back for more.

The world needs to help Ukraine if the US won't

About 25 million Americans have changed their opinion on Mr. Trump in six months.

Don't let anyone tell you we can't do this when we're already getting it done.

Fire with fire.
End of line.

Burn the GOP to the ground. They are disloyal. They are traitors. They oppose democracy because it stands against their power.

The power rests with the people.

Exclusive: US Air Force denies early retirement for group of transgender service members The U.S. Air Force is denying early retirement to all transgender service members with between 15 and 18 years of military service, opting instead to force them out with no retirement benefits, according to a memo seen by Reuters.

Air Force service members with 15-18 years of service can be eligible for early retirement. The Trump admin just blocked early retirement for all trans folks in the Air Force leaving them without the lifelong pensions or healthcare they're owed for their service.
